The characterising new requirement for distributed multimedia applications is the coexistence of dynamic real-time and non-real-time applications on hosts and networks. While some...
Interprocess communication (IPC) is an important phenomenon in distributed computing and operating systems. Microkernels of modern operating systems use synchronous IPC semantics f...
This work considers the problem of minimizing the power consumption for real-time scheduling on processors with discrete operating modes. We provide a model for determining the ex...
This paper presents a feasibility study of evolutionary scheduling for gas pipeline operations. The problem is complex because of several constraints that must be taken into consi...
Host security is achieved by securing both the operating system kernel and the privileged applications that run on top of it. Application-level bugs are more frequent than kernel-...
